    A Q & A with the Cast of “Justified”

    ‘ Last Tuesday evening, my good friend Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, invited me to attend a SAG screening/cast Q & A for the FX television series Justified at a venue in North Hollywood.  Now I should mention here that I have been a member of SAG for just about nine years and,…

  • We’re Moving!

    We’re Moving!

    ‘ As I mentioned in Monday’s post, the Grim Cheaper and I are moving this week.  (Hopefully we won’t have any moments like this!)  So blog posts will likely be few and far between over the next couple of weeks until we get settled.  Hopefully I’ll be back up and running sooner rather than later,…

    Starfleet Academy from “Star Trek”

    ‘ Be sure to check out my latest post for L.A.mag.com about the Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant, aka Starfleet Academy from Star Trek.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours. ‘

    The Shannen Doherty “Badass” Book Signing

    ‘ This past Tuesday night, the Grim Cheaper, fellow stalker Erika, and I all headed out to the Grove Shopping Center in Los Angeles to attend the Shannen Doherty Badass book signing and, as you can probably well imagine, I could NOT have been more excited about it!  As I was telling the GC on…

  • The “E.T.” House

    The “E.T.” House

    ‘ Although I consider myself somewhat of a master stalker (not as good as fellow stalkers Owen, Mike, from MovieshotsLA, or Chas, from ItsFilmedThere, of course), for whatever reason, up until this past weekend I had yet to visit one of the most famous movie locations of them all – the home where Mary (aka…

  • Tapas & Vino from “90210”

    Tapas & Vino from “90210”

    ‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk this past weekend while in the Redondo Beach area was Tapas & Vino restaurant which appeared in the Season 3 episode of fave show 90210 titled “Best Lei’d Plans”.  I found this location, as always, thanks to fellow stalker Geoff, from the 90210Locations…

  • Le Petit Paris from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    Le Petit Paris from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    ‘ Reese Witherspoon is deserving of a major ‘thank you’ from me!  Per the actress’ recent productions, I have been introduced to two fabulous downtown Los Angeles restaurants!  The first, The Wolves, popped up twice on her Apple TV+ series The Morning Show.  And now, via Little Fires Everywhere, I’ve discovered Le Petit Paris, a…

  • Rose Towers from “CSI: Cyber”

    Rose Towers from “CSI: Cyber”

    ‘ Spanish-style courtyard apartment complexes are my jam (as evidenced here, here, here, here, here, here, and here).  One that I became especially enamored of a little over a year ago was the pink-hued building where Tristan Jenkins (fave actor Matt Lanter) lived on the Season 2 episode of CSI: Cyber titled “Corrupted Memory.”  While…

  • Annie’s House from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    Annie’s House from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    ‘ We all have those movies – the ones that affected us so much upon first viewing, they left a lasting imprint on our hearts.  Sleepless in Seattle is one such movie for me.  As I mentioned in this 2010 post about the houseboat from the 1993 romcom, I still remember exactly where I was…

  • Bleeker’s House from “Juno”

    Bleeker’s House from “Juno”

    ‘ Another Vancouver location that fellow stalker Owen managed to track down was the supposed Minnesota-area house belonging to dorky high school track-star Paulie Bleeker (aka Michael Cera) in the 2007 breakout dramedy Juno.  And even though I was not a big fan of the flick – it was funny and all, but not especially…
